We improve, in the energy region between $\bar{K}K$ threshold and $\sim~1.4$ GeV, the energy-dependent phase shift analysis of $\pi\pi$ scattering presented in a previous paper. For the S0 wave we have included more data above $\bar{K}K$…
We study several basic dispersive models with random periodic initial data such that the different Fourier modes are independent random variables. Motivated by the vast Physics literature on related topics, we then study how much the…
Resonance, bound-state, and virtual-state pole positions of the $f_0(500)$ scalar meson are computed as a continuous function of pion mass in the framework of a unitarized and analytic coupled-channel model for scalar mesons, described as…
A central issue in hadron spectroscopy is to deduce --- and interpret --- resonance parameters, namely pole positions and residues, from experimental data, for those are the quantities to be compared to lattice QCD or model calculations.…
The complete set of electroweak O(alpha) corrections to the Drell--Yan-like production of W bosons is calculated and compared to an approximation provided by the leading term of an expansion about the W-resonance pole. All relevant formulae…
Near-degenerate resonance poles arise widely in open-wave systems. For gravitational-wave ringdowns, inference is performed on finite time windows where neighboring quasinormal modes can be spectrally close; the waveform is then dominated…
We propose a novel method for establishing the convergence rates of solutions to reaction-diffusion equations to traveling waves. The analysis is based on the study of the traveling wave shape defect function introduced in [2]. It turns out…
We derive exact solutions to the sine--Gordon equation describing localized structures on the background of librational and rotational travelling waves. In the case of librational waves, the exact solution represents a localized spike in…
An extended Roy equation including a bound state pole is used to study $\pi\pi$ scatterings at unphysical large pion masses when $\sigma$ becomes a bound state in one situation and stays as a broad resonance in the other case. The coupled…
We develop a discrete fermion approach for modelling the strong interaction of an arbitrary system interacting with continuum electronic reservoirs. The approach is based on a pseudo-fermion decomposition of the continuum bath correlation…
We use a twice-subtracted partial-wave dispersion relation in the elastic unitarity approximation for final-state interactions to study the amplitude for the delta I = 1/2 CP-conserving weak process K+spurion->pi+pi. We use a simple…
We summarize recent results on studies of $\pi\pi$ and $\pi N$ scatterings. They include the finding of a negative-parity nucleon pole with a mass lower than the nucleon mass, and the pole trajectory of $f_0(500)$ as the pion mass varies.…
Whether the $\sigma-meson$ ($f_0(600)$) exists as a real particle is a long-standing problem in both particle physics and nuclear physics. In this work, we analyze the deuteron binding energy in the linear $\sigma$ model and by fitting the…
We show that the introduction of an additional, hard, singularity in soft forward amplitudes enables one to improve considerably the fits using a simple-pole structure for the soft pomeron.
The weak charge of the proton $Q_{\textrm{w}}$ is one of the most fundamental quantities in physics. It can be determined by measuring the parity asymmetry $A_{\textrm{PV}}$ in elastic $ep$ scattering, where the $\gamma Z$-exchange…
Rapidly convergent, unsubtracted dispersion relations have been used to test coupled channel analyses of low-energy S = -1 meson-baryon pi Y --> pi Y' channels. We conclude that the low-energy S = -1 meson-baryon sector is less well known…

We consider the wave equation on a manifold $(\Omega,g)$ of dimension $d\geq 2$ with smooth strictly convex boundary $\partial\Omega\neq\emptyset$, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We construct a sharp local in time parametrix and then…
We present a new approach to the realization of hard fixed-order corrections in predictions for the processes probed in high energy colliding hadron beam devices, with some emphasis on the LHC and the future FCC devices. We show that the…
